Netafim UV Polyethylene Tubing 17mm for Drip Mainlines
This Netafim UV tubing runs 0.560" ID and 0.660" OD, sized to work as a mainline or sub-main in a drip system. The polyethylene resin is UV-resistant, so it holds up to direct sun, heat, and the acids in aggressive fertilizer programs. The opaque wall blocks light inside the line, which limits algae from taking hold. It comes in 500 ft and 1000 ft coils for permanent runs in rows, greenhouses, and nursery layouts. Growers roll it out along a bed, cut to length, and punch in drippers or barbed fittings as the grid takes shape.
Flexible 17mm Drip Irrigation Tubing for Surface or Subsurface Runs
The 0.560" bore pairs with standard 17mm drippers, fittings, and riser lines, so it ties into most Netafim hardware. Its flexibility speeds up layout, cutting, and connections when you build or expand a zone. You can run it on the surface or bury it subsurface. It even suspends from greenhouse structures. One thing to confirm: match your emitter and fitting barbs to the 0.560" ID before you order the coil. It backbones a new grid or an upgrade tied into existing manifolds and risers.
